Am curious as to the location of files that make up the users' data (ie, users' mail, OX's data...etc...any other userfull data locations...) I'd imagine OX keeps all its' data in the database & that email is in cyrus-data? But I really don't know so any verification or whatever would be great!

Hello, ok anyone know where i can get the older versions of sun java files such as jaf and javamail, can only download newer versions then in howto and portage.

cheers

I've got these, but I don't know off the top of my head if they're newer or older. If you want them, let me know and I'll do something to provide the files in a way that is not blatantly in violation of this, that or the other thing...

I just modified the ebuilds to download the newer versions of javamail. Unforunately, I'm having some problems with running open-xchange.

1) When I try to add a contact, I get the following error:

Code:

The contact has benn created in the Database but couldn't be inserted into the LDAP addressbook: Naming err in ContactLdap javax.naming.NoPermissionException: [LDAP: error code 50 - no write access to parent]; remaining name 'uid=24,ou=addr,uid=anonuser,ou=Users,ou=OxObjects'

2) For some reason I cannot send any mail or receive the mail. I have confirmed that sending works fine using mutt. Also, I have made sure that there is a MX record at pairnic for my domain. Trying to send mail from open-xchange results in :

Code:

No running Server found.
Please inform the Administrator!

3) When composing an email message, I can easily fill the To:, CC:, and BC: fields. However, I can't type text inside the message body, nor do the font size and style buttons work.

Edit 3: It seems to be a rendering and javascript problem with Safari browsers (used on Mac OS X), which is based on KHTML. Works fine with Mozilla Firefox 1.04. I am able to send messages.

So my only problem is point #1 and I can't receive email messages . I've forwarded the ports imap,imaps,ldap,pop3,pop3s all to my box using my wireless router's setup. For some reason, cyrus isn't putting the mail into the OX_MailBox/Inbox. I have created the user.anonuser already. Any suggestions?

With regard to receiving e-mail.. try forwarding port 25 (SMTP). SMTP is what mail servers use to transfer e-mail messages between them. It's only the clients that need to talk to 143/IMAP to get the messages to the user.

###
### JkOptions indicate to send SSL KEY SIZE,
###
# The directive JkOptions allow you to set many forwarding
# options which will enable (+) or disable (-) following option.
#
#
# JkOptions ForwardKeySize , you ask mod_jk, when using ajp13, to
# forward also the SSL Key Size as required by Servlet API 2.3.
# This flag shouldn't be set when servlet engine is Tomcat 3.2.x
# (on by default).
#
#
# JkOptions ForwardURICompat , you told mod_jk to send the URI to
# Tomcat normally, which is less spec compliant but mod_rewrite
# compatible, use it for compatibility with Tomcat 3.2.x engines
# (on by default).
#
#
# JkOptions ForwardURICompatUnparsed , the forwarded URI is unparsed,
# it's spec compliant but broke mod_rewrite.
#
#
# JkOptions ForwardURIEscaped , the forwarded URI is escaped and
# Tomcat (since 3.3 rc2) will do the decoding part.
#
#
# JkOptions ForwardDirectories is used in conjunction with Directory-
# Index directive of Apache web server. As such mod_dir should be
# available to Apache, statically or dynamically (DSO)
#
# When DirectoryIndex is configured, Apache will create sub-requests
# for each of the local-url's specified in the directive, to determine
# if there is a local file that matches (this is done by stat-ing the file).
#
# If ForwardDirectories is set to false (default) and Apache doesn't
# find any files that match, Apache will serve the content of the
# directory (if directive Options specifies Indexes for that directory)
# or a 403 Forbidden response (if directive Options doesn't specify
# Indexes for that directory).
#
# If ForwarDirectories is set to true and Apache doesn't find any
# files that match, the request will be forwarded to Tomcat for
# resolution. This is used in cases when Apache cannot see the index
# files on the file system for various reasons: Tomcat is running on
# a different machine, the JSP file has been precompiled etc.
#
# Note that locally visible files will take precedence over the ones
# visible only to Tomcat (i.e. if Apache can see the file, that's
# the one that's going to get served). This is important if there is
# more then one type of file that Tomcat normally serves - for
# instance Velocity pages and JSP pages.
#
JkOptions +ForwardKeySize +ForwardURICompat -ForwardDirectories

# We specify an autoalias, that makes it possible that apache is still
# reponsible for serving static html files. All requests of files with
# the ending .jsp will be redirected to a default Tomcat installation which
# uses the default profile. Change this to fit your needs.
jkAutoAlias /opt/tomcat5/webapps/
jkMount /*.jsp ajp13

can you verify the location of mod_jk.so on your computer? if it's not in /usr/lib/apache2/modules you'll have to modify your mod_jk conf file. upon further looking, it appears that you're still using mod_jk2.. please use mod_jk instead.

thanks for reply, can report there is no mod_jk.so on box, nither is there a mod_jk2.so. Am going to try emerging mod _jk again

After making these corrections and reloading the postfix daemon everything works like a champ. I'm still getting those darn ldap access errors when I try to add a contact. Bitwhore, did you add some ACL definitions inside of your /etc/openldap/ldap.conf file?

Also, I had tried previously to install OX on the amd64 architecture. Unfortunately, i never could get the thing running because Cyrus SASL authentication borked on me, eventhough I had ldap authentication compiled right in. I believe some of the dependencies of SASL don't work well in 64-bit mode quite yet. In addition, the blackdown compiler is kind ancient and did not work will with compiling some of the packages. If any amd64 users could kindly incate all the packages they used for this install and which JVM so I could make a package.keywords file for this install, I'd really appreciate.

Have gone through howto to make sure i have not missed something and all seems ok!

any pointers ?

Ok after checking and double checking everything i have found that the password i used in the OX config prior to compiling may be problem area, why!

well for one i / as one of the characters which maybe a problem as it is used to indicate end of line, the reason is that the config and make process changes the password, to be more specific it removes the character $ which was in password.

I recompiled OX with password that did not have these character and am currently trying to change postgres password for user so it matches.

Guys I am getting closer to the point were I upgrade / re-install my 7.5 system. I have helped many people out in this thread now it is your turn to help me! A simple question really.

More or less I hate macs. They do not support common things in there apps like SSL and that is just insane. Tiger might but Tiger broke every VPN server except for OSX server and one other one. That is just the tip of the iceburg. So i can not believe i am going to say this but I am pushing our three Mac users to "make the switch" to WINDOWS

One of of my selling point is OXLOOK. So I would love some feedback on how it currentlly works with the most recent versions OX server. Does everything work? Will it appear to my windows users that we are on a "Exchange" server? Is it that nice? And any other info you want to share with me would be great.

Well, my OX 0.8.0 is working quite well, I am now trying to tweak it a little for my needs.

I wanted to connect Mozilla Sunbird (using ical) or tried to reach documents on the server but whenever I try, I get this error message :

Quote:

type Exception report

message

description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.

exception

javax.servlet.ServletException: User "walid" does not belong to any group.
com.openexchange.tools.webdav.OXServlet.initializeService(OXServlet.java:436)

note The full stack trace of the root cause is available in the Apache Tomcat/5.0.27 logs.

any idea ?

I tried to add a user called "walid" in the system but this didn't solved the problem.
I'm clueless.
